It will go a bit faster then that if you can find a very long road, with no traffic, no potholes and no speed cameras

Trainers, T shirt, Yes.
Leather jacket and jeans, I wasn't planning on going out.
But I certainly don't think I will be riding with trainers again, if I hadn't had enough room to blip the throttle to straighten her up (and get my right foot down) I would have had a very embarrassing off.

Bernie if only you had been riding in slippers then this wouldnt have happened.

Good idea, I have a pair of M&S leather effect slippers somewhere (unused Xmas present)

So she running like a good en then, can't wait to give mine a good run, but same as though needs setting up before I gun it, gave mine a good strip and polish clean yester going over checking bits and pieces. All ready now to cover up for winter lol. Glad you have give it some though they are pretty quick bikes. =D> =D> =D>

PS not so clever with the laces, done it myself

I used to zap off the shops wearing slip on shoes in the late 80s.. Until I left one behind at a busy junction when I set off

I remember back in 1999 when I bought a zx7 ninja, I always used to wear for the first 2 yrs my cat boots, black jeans and only leather jacket, gloves and bash hat of course. But fortunately got away with it as I used to tuck laces in pheww

Having a dig out in the loft and found these....I forgot I had them (the best condition ones I have seen).





I really need to sort out the NOS bits that I never used

Are they for sale Mr B??

Mr B your a star !!

Hi Bernie, how's it going, I take it you did ride the shinny beast last year in the end. Been a bit hectic for me but mine will def be on the road this year, look forward to hearing

Hi Wayne,

Great to see you back =D>

Took the old girl out for a spin, forgot how fast bikes are , also forgot how long it takes to bed brakes in (new underwear required, and a lot more commitment into the roundabout at the end of the duel carriageway than I had anticipated)

Make sure you give everyone an update.

Cheers,
Bernie

Yeah its definitely pants filling time. One that sticks out in my mind was an s bend on my ZX7, but it was one that really does look like the z on the road sign, I got all out of shape used the bank and everything I could to get round, but I did, but I needed that commitment thing which I was lacking ( lazy boy ), but that changed after that I can assure you [-o< [-o<

Getting the old girl ready for the first nice day that comes along, just changed the carbs for a pair of 30mm ones and making sure that they are synchronised perfectly.
They just need a few tweaks as she is idling a bit high (that is my job for this evening).
I have missed the smell of petrol and two stroke

That's a mint looking bike !!!
